I liked the property because it is accessible and that it is near a mall. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable overall. The dining area is very nice and offers a view of Nairobi. Security is good which added to the safety I felt staying in the city. Good breakfast.

A beautiful and calm oasis to escape from Nairobi’s craziness in a safe neighborhood. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. Antonina and Wilson took best care of us and left us with no wish unfulfilled. We even got a free room upgrade just to make us feel more at home. We ate there for lunch two times and it also very good !

This is such an awesome hotel. It is in a peaceful location near the forest, given the hustle and bustle of Nairobi. The staff are so kind and friendly and always have a smile to greet you with. The rooms are clean and modern with all the facilities you will need. They even deliver a facial scrub to your room daily (they did whilst I was there). The drinks at the bar are amazing. The food in the restaurant and breakfast were good too (although I’m not a big breakfast eater). It’s not far from the 2 malls.

The staff was exceptionally welcoming and accommodated special requests. Spacious rooms and had all amenities. What we enjoyed the most was the music in the lounge, the lunch in the gardens, the conversations with Dan the manager, the homely feel encouraged socialising with other guests. Amazing local culture. Jane, Asanet,Grace were excellent at their care. Definitely a place to stay at again!

I liked the pool, the breakfast on the terrace and the relaxing environment. The place is very clean. Standard room are very nice, but budget room is very small and the showers is bad. Some members of the staff are extremely nice, like Susan, others make trubles... Overall in a good place to stay, we spent 2 weeks and the location was good for us because we needed to travel to magadi everyday.
